How to Create Your Own Event Tickets

It would only take a few simple steps in creating your own event ticket. Here are the steps and tips that might be helpful for you.

Choose a Format and Size

Firstly, choose your desired format and size for your event ticket. The format may be portrait or landscape or the positioning of the detachable stub which can be on the left, right, top, or bottom portion of the ticket. For the size, you may refer to the section below discussing the custom sizes for tickets. You can customize your own size, but make sure that you can easily print them and that the printing shops that would print your tickets would accept them.

Incorporate Designs

Incorporate creative designs on your ticket, add colors, and plan for the overall layout of your ticket. Decide on the color combinations and complementary colors that you would be using as this will affect the general presentation of your ticket. It is highly recommended that the designs that you are planning to incorporate in your ticket are related to your event.

Add Essential Elements

After drafter the layout, add the essential elements in your ticket—event title, date and time, venue, ticket number, logo and any branding, contact information, and other optional elements such as tagline, photos, amount, and seat number. Arrange and carefully place them on to your ticket in a way that the elements would complement with each other, creating a balanced design of text, colors, and images.

Proofread

After incorporating the essential elements, check and recheck if there are errors on your text and graphics. Make sure that your ticket is error-free especially when it comes to the time and date of the event as this will matter greatly. This would also affect the credibility of your organization as well as your event. If you include graphics and images, check if they are not misplaced or removed, and make sure that they are of good quality.

Choose a Paper

Before sending your ticket design for print, choose a paper that is suitable for your ticket. While most organizations would never bother choosing a thin and low-quality paper for their tickets, as they think that they are “just” tickets, know that they can also be a form of marketing that would help enhance your branding and the name of your organization. So, it is best that you would choose a paper that is durable and presentable enough to create an impression to your audience.

Choose a Paper Finish

Lastly, choose your desired paper finish. Matte paper finish are common nowadays, but the glossy paper finish are also typically used especially in music and fundraising events. No matter what paper finish you choose, the bottom line is it must be something that would enhance the quality of your ticket and maximize its presentation to make an impact and lasting impression to your audience and potential event attendees.

Types of Event Tickets

Event tickets can be categorized according to the event that they serve their purpose. Below are some event tickets commonly used and produced by event organizers:

Conference Event Ticket

In a conference involving attendees who need to sign up and register for an admission, usually, a ticket will be issued upon registration not only as a proof of registration but to have an access at the entrance of the venue of the event.

Music Event Ticket

Music events such as orchestra, performances by different music artists, and alike need to have a ticket especially for the admission of the guests.

Seminar Event Ticket

Business and corporate seminars also need tickets in order for the organizer to determine the number of attendees of such seminar and keep them for record purposes that will serve as a basis for future projections and forecasts.

Concert Event Ticket

In a concert event, again, tickets are used for the admission of the attendees. This ticket, apart from the essential elements of ticket presented above, usually includes the name of the band or bands who will perform at the concert and any guest artists as well as their photos in order to add eye-catching enhancements and designs.

Sports Event Ticket

In a sports event such as soccer, basketball, volleyball, football, among others, die-hard fans and supporters who would like to watch the game on the court or those who would want to have a close encounter with the players must purchase a ticket for their admission.

Fundraising Event Ticket

While most organizations are created in order to obtain profit, there are other organizations that are founded for charitable purposes. These organizations usually hold an event for a cause to raise funds. Hence, a fundraising event ticket must be sold in order to raise the certain amount of fund that they need.

Gala Ticket

In social occasions where there are special entertainments and performances such as a gala, a ticket for admission must also be implemented.

Art Exhibit Ticket

When artists display their artworks for an exhibit, it is customary that people visiting the place must be accounted for for security purposes. While most of the exhibits are for free, some exhibits by famous artists require registration that involves purchasing of art exhibit tickets. For free exhibits, tickets may still be needed to determine the number of people visiting the event.

• 2 × 5.5 inches
• 2.75 × 5.5 inches
